Transglutaminase transcription and antigen translocation in experimental renal scarring.
- T. S. Johnson, N. Skill, +5 authors Martin J. Griffin
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of the American Society of Nephrology…
- 1 October 1999
It was recently demonstrated that renal tissue transglutaminase (tTg) protein and its catalytic product the epsilon(gamma-glutamyl) lysine protein cross-link are significantly increased in the… Expand
Transglutaminase inhibition reduces fibrosis and preserves function in experimental chronic kidney disease.
- T. Johnson, M. Fisher, +8 authors Martin J. Griffin
- Medicine
- Journal of the American Society of Nephrology…
- 1 December 2007
Progressive tissue fibrosis is involved in debilitating diseases that affect organs including the lungs, liver, heart, skin, and kidneys. Recent evidence suggests that tissue transglutaminase, an… Expand
GFR prediction using the MDRD and Cockcroft and Gault equations in patients with end-stage renal disease.
- Ying Kuan, M. Hossain, Joanne Surman, A. E. El Nahas, J. Haylor
- Medicine
- Nephrology, dialysis, transplantation : official…
- 1 November 2005
BACKGROUND
Although prediction equations are recommended to determine GFR and creatinine clearance (CrCl), neither the MDRD equations nor the Cockcroft and Gault formula have been validated for the… Expand
Nitric oxide synthesis inhibitor prevents vasodilation by insulin-like growth factor I.
- J. Haylor, I. Singh, A. E. El Nahas
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Kidney international
- 1 February 1991
The effect of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on renal blood flow was measured in the anaesthetized rat using an electromagnetic flow probe. Renal vasodilation induced by IGF-I (50… Expand
Inhibition of collagen I accumulation reduces glomerulosclerosis by a Hic-5-dependent mechanism in experimental diabetic nephropathy
- N. Hornigold, T. Johnson, L. Huang, J. Haylor, Martin J. Griffin, A. Mooney
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Laboratory Investigation
- 1 May 2013
Glomerulosclerosis of any cause is characterized by loss of functional glomerular cells and deposition of excessive amounts of interstitial collagens including collagen I. We have previously reported… Expand
Increases in renal epsilon-(gamma-glutamyl)-lysine crosslinks result from compartment-specific changes in tissue transglutaminase in early experimental diabetic nephropathy: pathologic implications.
- N. Skill, Martin J. Griffin, +6 authors T. Johnson
- Medicine
- Laboratory investigation; a journal of technical…
- 2001
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is characterized by an early, progressive expansion and sclerosis of the glomerular mesangium leading to glomerulosclerosis. This is associated with parallel fibrosis of the… Expand
Expression of apoptosis-related genes and proteins in experimental chronic renal scarring.
- B. Yang, T. Johnson, +5 authors A. E. El Nahas
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of the American Society of Nephrology…
- 1 February 2001
Apoptosis has been proposed to play an important role in the progression of renal scarring. The mechanisms that determine whether a cell enters the apoptotic program are complex. Bax and Bcl-2 are… Expand
Cyclic GMP release and vasodilatation induced by EDRF and atrial natriuretic factor in the isolated perfused kidney of the rat
- G. Burton, S. MacNeil, A. Jonge, J. Haylor
- Chemistry, Medicine
- British journal of pharmacology
- 1 February 1990
1 Guanosine 3′:5′‐cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP) release and vascular tone was measured in the isolated kidney of the rat perfused at constant flow with Krebs‐Henseleit solution. The effects of 3… Expand
Haploinsufficiency of Pkd2 is associated with increased tubular cell proliferation and interstitial fibrosis in two murine Pkd2 models.
- Ming Yang Chang, E. Parker, +4 authors A. Ong
- Biology, Medicine
- Nephrology, dialysis, transplantation : official…
- 1 August 2006
BACKGROUND
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited human kidney disease and is caused by germline mutations in PKD1 (85%) or PKD2 (15%). It has been… Expand
JB3, an IGF-I receptor antagonist, inhibits early renal growth in diabetic and uninephrectomized rats.
- J. Haylor, H. Hickling, +4 authors A. E. El Nahas
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of the American Society of Nephrology…
- 1 November 2000
Biochemical evidence suggests that insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) may play an important role as a mediator of kidney growth. In the present study, an IGF-I receptor antagonist (JB3) was… Expand
